"What did you do?"
The elder’s expression was sowhat confused, then he shook his head and said, "I did nothing—didn’t even get a second glance. I am like a defective product nurtured by the Soul God, never receiving his attention. Yet on the other hand, I have spent seven thousand years searching for this Soul God who devastated my kin and my people."
"In these seven thousand years of searching, I did not find the actual body of the Soul God, nor did I discover a trace of his soul aura. But I know, he still roams the vast Six Domains (at that ti, the nine domains had not yet ford), where countless planes suffered the sa faith invasion as my clan. The Heavenly Gods were blinded, cut off from the world, while despair and death filled the entire plane. Until the last survivor erged, that isolating layer would dissolve, releasing bloodthirsty monsters. These monsters usually only had one ending—that is to be discovered by this world’s Heavenly God and directly obliterated. I was lucky back then. The Heavenly God Ancestor took pity on my plight, spent a century to cleanse the killing from my soul, and awakened my consciousness."
After listening to the elder’s story, Lu Hong’s hatred for this Soul God intensified. This kind of behavior is clearly treating human life as a ga, as an object for his experints or amusent, viewing human life as insignificant, with an attitude that disregards life. This surged Lu Hong’s anger even more.
"Give that strand of aura. This old man broke through the limitations of the body, achieving a soul’s sublimation, for the sole purpose of seeking the traces of the Soul God, to take revenge on him!"
Receiving the strand of soul aura from Lu Hong, the elder clenched it tightly in his palm, then slightly closed his eyes, continuously infusing it with the power of the soul.
Through sensing the soul’s original power, the elder’s consciousness suddenly arrived in a black abyss filled with the painful wails of human souls. Sharp screams, desperate pleas for help, foul and obscene curses, malicious and hopeless oaths constantly filled the elder’s ears.
If it were an ordinary Heavenly God’s soul, as soon as it entered this area, it would probably be assimilated by the spirits of despair, lost forever, never to awaken.
Fortunately, the elder was different; his soul had already achieved the ultimate sublimation. These souls from the abyss could not cause him any substantial harm. In fact, if he wished, he could lift a hand to purify all the souls here.
However, he did not do so, but instead walked deeper into the abyss of souls.
As he delved further, the tortured souls beca more concentrated. Frenzied howls and roars echoed in the elder’s ears, trying to drag him into the abyss, to forever bury him there.
After walking for a distance of nearly tens of thousands of ters, the elder suddenly found himself in an open area.
A mountain of souls, built from countless spirits, appeared before his eyes.
And at the peak of the mountain stood the very Soul God he had been searching for countless ages.
A burly, strong middle-aged man with a playful expression.
The elder’s arrival, naturally, did not escape the Soul God’s perception.
Seeing the elder’s eyes full of hatred, the Soul God rose from his throne and chuckled, "A seed I casually planted back then—unexpectedly, it sprouted. Humanity truly is a fascinating race."
"Soul God!" Gritting his teeth, the elder roared at his opponent, "I found you! Just wait, I will co, I definitely will co, I will find you and kill you!"
Upon hearing the roar, the Soul God looked dismissive and snorted coldly, "Oh? Then I’ll wait here for you. As long as you can reach , I’ll give you a chance to strike. Human, I am waiting for you!"
After speaking, the Soul God waved his large hand, and the elder’s body began to dissipate little by little like a candle flickering in the wind.
This was just a strand of the elder’s soul consciousness. Even with its dissipation, it wouldn’t affect the main body. Yet, through tracking the essence of the Soul God, this strand found his hiding place!
The next second, the elder’s consciousness returned, and a surge of majestic soul pressure exploded. Lu Hong, standing nearby, only felt his hairs stand on end, his whole body like a small sailboat in a storm, appearing extrely insignificant and helpless.
This release of aura also gave Lu Hong a deeper understanding of the elder’s power. There was no way he could be his opponent. This elder must be at the pinnacle of the Nine Domains, probably comparable to the likes of the Sky-splitting Ancestor of the Fierce Beast lineage, the Netherworld God, and the Hell Demon King Helder.
"Soul God! I have arrived!" the elder shouted angrily, and the entire mountain exploded. A surge of soul power shot up like a pillar of light, connecting heaven and earth, releasing boundless pressure across the universe.
This release of power naturally drew the attention of the Fierce Beast lineage. The Mirror Domain, close to the local region, was an important territory of the Fierce Beast lineage, inhabited by nurous powerful beasts.
In just an instant, eight Heavenly Realm Fierce Beasts arrived to investigate the commotion.
"Elder, be careful of those beasts. Our human race in the Nine Domains has declined, all slaughtered by these beasts. They are our mortal enemies," Lu Hong promptly briefed the elder on the current situation upon seeing the arrival of God Lord Level beasts.
Nodding slightly at Lu Hong’s words, the elder said, "Weren’t the Fierce Beasts in the Primordial Era driven away by slaughter? How do they still have the qualifications to fight for our Six Domains?"
Though puzzled, the elder didn’t pause in action.
The elder flicked his large hand, and a tangible hand, condensed with the power of the soul, smacked towards the nearest beast charging at him.
Feeling the imnse power attached to the giant palm, the Heavenly Realm beast didn’t hesitate. It imdiately unleashed its full Bloodline Power, revealing a blood-colored giant elephant behind it. This was a bloodline of the Gigantic Force Elephant clan, running through the blood of the Gigantic Force Elephant, possessing terrifying strength and unparalleled defense, a perfect balance of offense and defense, with speed being the only shortcoming.
Yet even with this Heavenly Realm Gigantic Force Elephant beast unleashing its full power, it could not survive the palm released by the elder.
With this single strike, the ancient road and earth within thousands of miles caved in deeply, sinking over a thousand feet.
The Fierce Beast of the Gigantic Force Elephant lineage was directly flattened into a thin sheet of at, utterly killed.
This scene stunned not only the other beasts but also made Lu Hong’s heart shrink. To kill a powerful late-stage Heavenly Realm beast with one strike?! Damn it, this elder’s power was even more formidable than he imagined. With a pillar like this, how could humans be suppressed by beasts, treated like cattle and sheep? If they had invited this elder out earlier, perhaps with just him standing guard at the Night Hunting Pass, the beast army wouldn’t be able to advance an inch.
Unfortunately, the Dukeesa family patriarch seed to have misjudged this elder’s power. Otherwise... Well, it doesn’t matter now. As long as this elder is present, the human race’s future plight will undoubtedly improve significantly.
Seeing their companion killed with one blow, the remaining seven Heavenly Realm beasts imdiately halted their charge towards Lu Hong and the elder, turning tail and fleeing without a word.
Watching these beasts flee, the elder raised an eyebrow, "Run? Can you really escape?"
As he finished speaking, the soul power exploded once more, and in an instant, a massive cage unfolded, enveloping all seven Heavenly Realm beasts.
However, this ti, the elder didn’t strike a killing blow. Instead, he continuously contracted the cage, imprisoning the seven beasts within, dragging them to Lu Hong’s feet.
Seeing the heap of beasts thrown before him, Lu Hong asked in bewildernt, "Why didn’t you just kill them, Elder?"
Hearing Lu Hong’s question, the elder hesitated and spoke, "You also carry the beast’s bloodline. Don’t you need to enhance your power? You’re too weak to aid in confronting the Soul God; you must quickly grow stronger."
Upon hearing this, Lu Hong quickly cupped his fist in respect, "Enhance my power? How do I do that? Please, enlighten , Elder!"
The elder looked at Lu Hong and suddenly laughed, "You gained the Bloodline Power, truly fortunate indeed."
